SECTION VI<br />
TAKEOVER AND MOVE INTO SFA<br />
0514. Timescale. Personnel are to take over and move into the accepted SFA within 14<br />
days <strong>of</strong> their stated required date.<br />
0515. Notice <strong>of</strong> move In. Under normal circumstances, occupants <strong>of</strong> SFA are to give the<br />
HASC 21 days notice wherever possible <strong>of</strong> their proposed move in date to enable the<br />
HASC to meet the terms <strong>of</strong> the Service Level Agreement (SLA) for the provision <strong>of</strong><br />
Accommodation Services Support whereby they are to give the ASU at least 14 days (14<br />
days) notice.<br />
0516. SFA Move In. There are 3 categories <strong>of</strong> individual who may conduct a Move In to<br />
an accepted SFA and are as follows:<br />
As at 13 Jul 12<br />
a. The entitled person to whom the SFA is allocated.<br />
b. A Service proxy appointed by the Service person as long as written authority<br />
(Proxy Certificate) has been given by the Service person to the Service proxy to<br />
take over the property and to sign the inventory.<br />
c. The Service person's spouse/civil partner in circumstances where the Service<br />
person cannot attend move in for Service reasons. Written authority (Proxy<br />
Certificate) must be given by the Service person to the spouse/civil partner to take<br />
over the property and to sign the inventory on the Service person's behalf.<br />
SECTION VII<br />
MID TOUR MOVES – RELOCATION PROVISIONS<br />
0517. Guidance. The provisions set out below are for guidance only. Entitlements<br />
contained in tri-Service or single Service relocation regulations have primacy over this<br />
guidance.<br />
0518. Publicly funded mid-tour moves. A mid tour move undertaken for Service<br />
reasons should be at public expense – i.e. the individual is entitled to the full relocation<br />
provisions and the appropriate rate <strong>of</strong> DA. It does not matter whether the occupied SFA is<br />
below, to, or above entitlement, or whether it was occupied by choice or for Service<br />
reasons. Mid tour moves for Service reasons include situations where a move is<br />
necessary for DIO Ops Accommodation disposal or upgrade programmes; and where<br />
entitlements change as a result <strong>of</strong> changes in family size or on promotion. Service reasons<br />
may also include a move from SSFA to SFA where it will result in a saving to public funds,<br />
even if the move was requested by the Service occupant.<br />
0519. Exceptional authority for a publicly funded mid tour move. However, there<br />
could be other circumstances that do not fall within the definitions <strong>of</strong> Service reasons at<br />
Para 0518 above, but where nevertheless a move at public expense might be appropriate.<br />
Individuals may therefore submit a case for exceptional authority for a publicly funded<br />
